Star Qualities
We are the primary builders of our lives. As builders we carry a toolbox that we use to help us along the way. There is more to becoming a Top 20 than just being lucky, wealthy, smart or talented. The following are some of the most common Star Qualities.
Creative: inventive, full of ideas
Self-Confident: belief in oneself
Organized: able to keep your life in order
Responsible: willing to be accountable
Outgoing: friendly, sociable
Self-Motivated: self-starting
Persistent: sticking with it
Enthusiastic: having eager interest
Emotionally Aware: in touch with feelings and thoughts
Self-Disciplined : having self control
Focused: staying fixed on a goal or task
Optimistic: hopeful, seeing the positive
Proactive: doing what needs to be done before a problem develops
Courageous: responding in spite of fear
Spiritual: connected with your true self and your values.
The biggest thing that separates the Top 20 from the Bottom 80 is NOT intelligence (IQ). It is EQ – the Emotional Quotient. EQ is becoming self-smart, people-smart, and a new way of becoming school-smart.
